Neris is a 34-year-old central defender at Vitoria, rated 11.6 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (15.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.18 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Neris.

On the season, Neris graded 7 for current form (age-blind), on 2 clean sheets and 2.183 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 7 → 6). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 34 Neris is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 11.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
